Bernice Burton Williams,80, of Elbridge passed away peacefully Tuesday at home with her husband of 60 years by her side. Born in Syracuse, Bea grew up in Jordan and was a  1954 graduate of Jordan High School. She dedicated her life to her family including eleven children, twenty grandchildren, eighteen great-grandchildren and many foster children. Her door was always open and so was her heart. She never missed the opportunity to see all the colors around her and take the most enjoyment in them. She was predeceased by her parents, Stanley and Dorothy Burton and daughters Trisha Lee and Tami Lynn. Bea is survived by her husband James and children: Teresa Nyquist, Mark Williams (Lynette), Tracey Mills (Robert), Michael Williams (Penny), Susan Hichman, Tami Oman (Eric), Matthew P. Williams (Renee), Martin Williams (Teena), John Williams (Kimberly), Matthew A. Williams and Annemarie Williams (J.J.), a brother Eugene Burton, nieces, nephews, and brothers and sisters-in- law.

A special thank you to our “Aunt Becky” for her endless hours dedicated to Mom.

Services will be 11am Saturday, Nov. 4th in the Elbridge Community Church 109 E. Main St. Contributions may be made to the Alzhimers Association or St. Jude’s.
